Hi,
Just bought 4 x F3-17000CL9D for my GA P55A-UD6 - doing a lot of video editing etc. However, I can't get the sticks running much higher than 1800. I've upped the QPI/VTT voltage to 1.4 and the DRAM to 1.64, tried running on XMP (didn't work) and manually setting (BCLK to 166 and SPD 12 - ramping the CPU clock down to 15 to take it out of the equation), didn't boot at all.
Is there anything I should be looking at specifically? I've turned off all the power saving C states according to a lot of info I've found on the net, and I've tried taking the CPU out of the mix - also tried changing the sockets. However, I'm thinking that it's just not that easy to overclock this much memory - is that the case?
Does anyone have tips I should be doing to try to get this running at speed? I'm looking to get it to at least DDR3-2000. I've opened up all the CAS timings as well to try to work out the problem, still no luck.
Thanks in advance for the advice.
